  • Abstract:
  • Normal water treated with a magnetic field to change water properties and that water mix to concrete it improve concrete properties. The magnetic water process charges the water particles, reducing the cluster size of water molecules from 13 to approximately 5 or 6. This paper focuses on assessing water quality standards through physiochemical analyses, including measurements of electrical conductivity, pH, and total dissolved solids, under varying exposure times to the magnetic field. The study evaluates the fresh, hardened, and microstructural characteristics of concrete made with magnetic water, utilizing a permanent magnet with a strength of 1000 Gauss. M-sand is used as the fine aggregate to examine the effects of magnetized water on the quality, strength, and suitability for M20 grade concrete. Results indicate that increasing the exposure duration of water to the magnetic field leads to significant improvements in concrete properties, including enhanced workability and compressive strength. This suggests that replacing normal water with magnetic water in concrete mixes could reduce the quantity of cement required, making it a more sustainable and environmentally friendly construction material for the future.
